Tilda Swinton is creating an exhibition for the Eye Filmmuseum in Amsterdam that may embrace new movie initiatives she’s going to create in collaboration with a sequence of filmmakers, together with Luca Guadagnino and Joanna Hogg.
The exhibition will probably be titled Tilda Swinton – Ongoing and will probably be on view from 28 September 2025 to eight February 2026. The total checklist of filmmakers she has tapped for the exhibition are Pedro Almodóvar, Luca Guadagnino, Joanna Hogg, Jim Jarmusch, and Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Swinton may even create two set up items with style historian and curator Olivier Saillard and photographer Tim Walker.
The work of Derek Jarman, the late filmmaker behind seminal works like Jubilee and The Backyard, may even be celebrated as a part of the exhibition, with Swinton presenting never-before-seen archival materials from his 8mm oeuvre. Jarman and Swinton have been longtime collaborators, with the actor making her display debut in Jarman’s Caravaggio.
“With the honour of this extraordinary invitation, Eye has given me the chance to mirror on the mechanics of my working apply over the previous forty years,” Swinton stated in a press release.
“In focusing consideration on profoundly enriching inventive relationships in my life, we share the narratives and atmospheres that encourage us: we provide new work, particularly commissioned for the Eye exhibition, as the newest gestures borne out of varied companionable conversations that hold me curious, engaged, and nourished. An ongoing – and unbroken – thread of breadcrumbs via the wooden, new leaves on long-established timber. The perpetual seedbed. I ought to be so fortunate, within the present of such an invite, in such mates and in such a life.”
